Qian Renxue Protects Her Husband

"Sword Douluo is this junior's uncle."

After hearing that, a trace of gloom appeared between Dugu Bo's brows.

Sword Saint Chen Xin was far, far stronger than he was. If Chen Xin made a move, he would stand no chance at all.

What was more, this young man possessed such terrifying strength. He was clearly exceptional even among geniuses.

"So you're Sword Douluo's nephew. Then we'll let this matter end here today."

Dugu Bo smiled faintly and landed beside Liu Yi.

The moment he landed, Liu Yi could clearly feel the old man radiating an icy chill.

If Dugu Bo had not been wary of Chen Xin, he would probably have torn him to pieces already.

"Thank you, Senior." Liu Yi cupped his hands.

Knowing when to yield was the way to live long.

Dugu Bo nodded and turned to Prince Xue Xing.

"Prince Xue Xing, let's go."

"Mr. Dugu, if we just leave like this, where will the royal family's dignity be?"

After all, he was Prince Xue Xing of the Heaven Dou Empire. If he left just like that, he would be utterly humiliated.

Dugu Bo narrowed his eyes. "Do you know who his uncle is?"

"His uncle is Chen Xin, Sword Douluo, one of the current elders of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"

Prince Xue Xing staggered back several steps, panic appearing on his face.

"Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has always been affiliated with the Heaven Dou Empire, that is not entirely true."

Prince Xue Xing clenched his fists. He was truly stuck between a rock and a hard place now.

If he did not find himself a way out soon, he would lose control.

"Who dares act so recklessly in my territory!"

A cold voice rang out from the distance. Three councilors slowly approached alongside Xue Qinghe.

Xue Qinghe had originally already left Heaven Dou Royal Academy, but Liu Yi's battle had ended too quickly.

She had barely stepped out when she heard that fighting had broken out within the academy.

She had not wanted to concern herself with such matters, but when she thought of Liu Yi, she still came with the three councilors.

"Xue Qinghe, why are you here?"

"Uncle, why can't I be here?"

Prince Xue Xing frowned slightly. "Of course you can. It's just that... this academy is currently handling a matter. Xue Qinghe, you should stay out of it."

"Oh?" Xue Qinghe raised a brow and swept her gaze across the Heaven Dou Empire troops around them.

When she saw Xue Beng's condition, her expression changed as well.

"All the ribs in his chest are broken, and his left ankle is dislocated."

"It was all him!" Prince Xue Xing angrily pointed at Liu Yi, who was sitting atop the roof.

Xue Qinghe froze slightly. She had not expected Xue Beng to have been injured by her husband. Then there was no one else to blame.

"Chen—"

Just as Xue Qinghe was about to speak, she remembered what Liu Yi had told her.

"From now on, call me Liu Yi. The name Chen Chuan sounds awful."

"Liu Yi is a Heaven Supreme Grade teacher I recruited. I will investigate this matter thoroughly."

Prince Xue Xing's brows knitted tightly. "Why not investigate it thoroughly now?"

"Uncle, I have my reasons. You... need not say more."

Faced with Xue Qinghe's lofty demeanor, Prince Xue Xing did not show the slightest temper. It was unclear whether he had been intimidated by her kingly aura or pressured by the three councilors.

Dugu Bo looked at Xue Qinghe. "Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Xue Qinghe turned around. "Is there something you need, Mr. Dugu?"

"No, no. I merely wanted to understand something."

"Hm? Understand what?"

"You just said that Liu Yi was recommended to Heaven Dou Royal Academy by you. His Martial Soul is the Seven Kill Sword, so why isn't he in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? Why did he come to Heaven Dou Royal Academy instead?"

With a light leap, Liu Yi landed beside the two of them.

"The laws of the Heaven Dou Empire never state that a Soul Master with the Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul cannot become a teacher."

Dugu Bo narrowed his eyes, then turned and walked toward Prince Xue Xing.

"Hehe, young man, you're quite interesting. Until we meet again."

Left with no other choice, Prince Xue Xing could only leave Heaven Dou Royal Academy alongside Dugu Bo.

This could not be blamed on Prince Xue Xing. Even if Liu Yi were not from the Chen Family, he still could not be touched.

It was obvious that Xue Qinghe held Liu Yi in high regard. She had made it clear just now that only she could manage Liu Yi; others were not qualified.

With powerful figures everywhere now, Dugu Bo had become extremely cautious.

One careless step, and they would fall into the Bottomless Abyss.

Inside the carriage.

Prince Xue Xing let out a helpless sigh.

Dugu Bo comforted him, "Alright, stop sighing. I never expected that little fellow to have such a formidable background. Forget Chen Xin—even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is not something you can provoke at will."

"Otherwise... even this old man..."

Prince Xue Xing nodded heavily. At this point, there was nothing else he could do. Liu Yi's background was simply too powerful.

Inside Liu Yi's private room, Qian Renxue held him tightly.

"Husband, do you know how dangerous that was just now? A top-tier expert like a Titled Douluo is still not someone you can defeat."

Qian Renxue raised her head and looked at Liu Yi with heartache in her eyes.

"It's fine. That old fellow doesn't dare make a move against me for now."

"Hm? You mean Sword Saint Chen Xin?"

Liu Yi nodded. "That's right. Although I've never met that uncle of mine, having this Seven Kill Sword is enough."

Like a little kitten, Qian Renxue rubbed herself against Liu Yi's chest.

Liu Yi smiled faintly and held Qian Renxue as he fell backward.

An hour later.

Qian Renxue changed back into Xue Qinghe. Her pretty face was slightly flushed as she looked at Liu Yi. "You should continue teaching. If anything comes up, you can come directly to me."

"Alright, bye-bye."

"Bye-bye."

Xue Qinghe pulled up her pants, gazed deeply at Liu Yi, then turned and left the room.

Outside the door.

The three education committee members exchanged glances, having no idea what the Crown Prince had discussed with Instructor Liu Yi.

"Crown Prince."

Xue Qinghe nodded and said coldly, "Let's go. Has the matter been investigated?"

"It has been investigated. The Fourth Prince deliberately insulted Instructor Liu Yi, which was why Instructor Liu Yi struck so heavily."

Xue Qinghe frowned slightly. "I understand. Go back and inform them that this matter ends here. I will speak to Father Emperor myself."

"Yes!"

Watching them leave, Liu Yi put on his clothes and walked out of the room.

This matter was already over. He still had to return to the classroom and train the students.

Class Two-Three had already been cleaned up, with the desks and chairs neatly arranged in rows.

The moment Liu Yi entered, everyone in the classroom lowered their heads, afraid that Instructor Liu Yi would be displeased and beat them up.

"Now then, is there anyone who still refuses to accept this?"

Liu Yi swept his gaze around the room and chuckled when he saw their reactions.

These spoiled young masters really needed violence to set them straight.

"From today onward, I am your instructor, and I will also be your only instructor for the next three years. During that time, I will select seven of you to form a team. Naturally, those with greater strength will be given priority."

"I counted. There are eighteen students in our class, which means eleven of you will be eliminated."
